Sitting at the patio next to the new cafeteria, looking over the pond, one can see the old ORNL visitor overlook, up the hill across the street (out of view in the photo above). Even from that distance, one can see it has changed significantly since my last visit.

Little remains of the old nature trail, but a new cut through the trees near the parking lot provides an adequate walking route up the hill.




Near the overlook, the old trail to the parking lot is blocked by a fallen tree.
